LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION

UNDER ACT 2, 1995

PREAMBLE 2


The following plans and reports were submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).

   Provisions of Chapter 3 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of submission of plans and reports. A final report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to one of the act's remediation standards. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis for selecting the environmental media of concern, documentation supporting the selection of residential or nonresidential exposure factors, a description of the remediation performed and summaries of sampling analytical results which demonstrate that remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. Submission of plans and reports, other than the final report, shall also be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. These include the remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan for a Site-Specific Standard remediation. A remedial investigation report includes conclusions from the site investigation, concentration of regulated substances in environmental media; benefits of refuse of the property and, in some circumstances, a fate and transport analysis. If required, a risk assessment report describes potential adverse effects caused by the presence of regulated substances. If required, a cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements.

   For further information concerning plans or reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program manager in the Department regional office after which the notice of receipt of plans or reports appears. If information concerning plans or reports is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate regional office.

The Department has taken action on the following plans and reports under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).

   Provisions of 25 Pa. Code § 250.8, administration of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act), require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of final actions on plans and reports. A final report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to one of the remediation standards of the act. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis of selecting the environmental media of concern, documentation supporting the selection of residential or nonresidential exposure factors, a description of the remediation performed and summaries of sampling methodology and analytical results which demonstrate that the remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. Plans and reports required by provisions of the act for compliance with selection of remediation to a Site-Specific Standard, in addition to a final report, include a remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan. A remedial investigation report includes conclusions from the site investigation, concentration of regulated substances in environmental media, benefits of refuse of the property and, in some circumstances, a fate and transport analysis. If required, a risk assessment report describes potential adverse effects caused by the presence of regulated substances. If required, a cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements. A work plan for conducting a baseline remedial investigation is required by provisions of the act for compliance with selection of a special industrial area remediation. The baseline remedial investigation, based on the work plan, is compiled into the baseline environmental report to establish a reference point to show existing contamination, describe proposed remediation to be done and include a description of existing or potential public benefits of the use or reuse of the property. The Department may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides the Department's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval.

Juniata Run Wetland Fill and Stream Enclosure for Residential Condominium Development, City of Dubois, Clearfield County, United States Army Corps of Engineers, Pittsburgh District (Falls Creek, PA Quadrangle Latitude:  41° 8` 1.84"; Longitude:  78° 45` 14.80").

   The applicant proposes to place and maintain fill in wetlands associated to Juniata Run and construct, operate and maintain an enclosure of a UNT to Juniata Run for the development of a 20 unit residential condominium complex and appurtenants. Placement of fill shall be limited to a maximum 0.44-acre of wetland. The stream enclosure shall be constructed with minimum diameter of 18-inches and maximum length of 120-feet. Placement of fill in 0.44-acre of wetlands and enclosing 120-feet of UNT are permanent impacts for which the applicant shall provide 0.61-acre of replacement wetlands and 300-feet of riparian stream corridor planting along Juniata Run as mitigation for those permanent impacts.

   E18-442. Department of Transportation, Engineering District 2-0, 1924 Daisy Street Extension, Clearfield, PA 16830. SR 0510 Section 314 Roadway Betterment in Bald Eagle Township, Mill Hall Borough, Clinton County, United States Army Corps of Engineers, Baltimore District (Mill Hall, PA Quadrangle Latitude:  41° 06` 56"; Longitude 77° 28` 42").

   Department of Transportation, Engineer District 2-0 is applying for a Standard Joint Permit to construct a betterment roadway rehabilitation project on SR 0150. The western limit is near the intersection of SR 0064 and Fishing Creek. The eastern limit is at the SR 0150 bridge over Bald Eagle Creek. The proposed roadway upgrades include lane and signal additions, signal timing adjustments, drainage improvements and milling and overlaying the entire project. The project is entirely located within the floodplain of Bald Eagle and Fishing Creeks. The majority of the project is located within the FEMA special flood Hazard Areas. Minor fills will be placed in the floodways of Bald Eagle and Fishing Creeks. Minor fill amounts will be placed along the floodway of Fishing Creek at the intersection of SR 0150 and SR 0064. Minor fill amounts will be placed along the floodway of Bald Eagle Creek on SR 0150. Construction of additional turning lanes and roadway widening will result in a total of approximately 1,472 cubic yards of permanent fill in the floodway (0.85 acre, 37,000 ft2 in the Bald Eagle Floodway and 0.14 acre, 6,000 ft2 in the Fishing Creek Floodway). The project lies within the defined ''Ineffective Flow Areas'' of the two water courses and their confluence. The ineffective flow areas provide little to no impact on the water courses carrying capacity because they are removed from the mathematical calculations of a flood model. This project provides 5 ft or less of floodway encroachment along SR 0150 roadway on the two floodways. The floodway in this area is approximately 6,500 ft wide. Due to the fact that this fill lies within the limits of the ineffective flow areas and would be eliminated from the hydraulic model, a hydraulic model was waived for this application. This project is not expected to have any effect on adjacent Water Surface Elevations or Velocities. Bald Eagle Creek is designated a CWF according to 58 Pa. Code, Chapter 93. Fishing Creek is designated a WWF according to 58 Pa. Code, Chapter 93. This permit application is for fill in the floodway. No Temporary or Permanent stream or wetland impacts are anticipated from this project and mitigation is not required.
